Little Italy houses many places that are just OK but not worth a detour from the other area offerings, have no crab things and are on the touristy side. . .Sabatino's is good for late-night people watching over standard red-sauce pastas and the Bookmaker salad. Amicci's has huge plates and is OK with kids. La Scala is somewhat hip and modern. Vaccaro's is a dessert place with cannolis and gelato. Better to seek out neighborhood places that are not Italian like Samos (Greektown, east of town) and Jennings (local roadhouse) in Catonsville, west of town. Best crabcake is Faidley's a stand in a public market (Lexington Market) north of the stadium in the old commercial area. closes 530.Best crabs are Mr Bill's Terrace Inn and Costas, way east of town. An interesting crab place is LP Steamers by Ft. McHenry in SBaltimore by I-95, roof deck with a view on a rowhouse.
